To the Editor:
A controversy is brewing at the state Capitol on whether to end or severely restrict mining of silica sand because of the potential environmental concerns.
These concerns have been inflamed by a Hollywood propaganda film “Promised Land,” filled with misleading information. The film claims, among other things, that families in Pennsylvania had their groundwater contaminated because of “fracking” for natural gas.

February is here, and I thought I would give you some of the highlights of the school year thus far.
With about four months to go in the school year, we look forward to the many success stories that will happen. Things at GSL are going great, and we have lots to be proud of.
During the recent visit from the commissioner of education, we had an opportunity to show her firsthand how great GSL is.
